More on Fantastic Four

While in LA to promote her latest film, Beau Garrett gave blackfilm some info on her character in the upcoming "Fantastic Four" sequel.

"I play Frankie Raye. She's a military brat, who grew up in the military. She works under General Hager, who's played by Andre Braugher and we come in to cooperate with the Fantastic Four to stop these events that are happening in the world and try to save the world."

Garrett goes on to say "She then becomes a superhero so I've been told. It doesn't happen in the film." In the comics, the character of Frankie Raye was originally the Human Torch's girlfriend who happened to be afraid of fire. "She has a fire power. I hope they bring me back. I want to throw flames."

In the comics, Frankie Raye aided the Fantastic Four for some time, until she volunteered to become the herald of Galactus. She was ultimately killed by the alien Morg, who had replaced her. 20th Century Fox has scheduled the sequel for a June 15th, 2007 release date.
